Review by 'mathchris' on item 'HiFiMAN RE-600'
Sound is on par with Shure products at similar prices. (I prefer the Shure sound but their latest offerings aren't too comfortable in my ears). So that's a glowing review on the audio from me. But the Re-600 formed a short near the headphone jack real quick, then cable started pushing itself...- mathchris

Review by 'mathchris' on item 'Shure SE215'
I like these more than my Monster Turbines. Less good than the Shure e4c, different price point I know. They're more difficult to insert than the average IEM. Other users seem to find them comfortable enough but not me, not at all. Extended listening gives me a bit of pain. The ear tips are...- mathchris

Good soundcard to go with Astro A40.
I have the A40s & love them. This forum is dedicated to audio & rightfully looks down on them as you're paying a premium for design, cable management & licensed gamer cred. If your a console gamer or you're gaming on a PC with an optical output, I say go all in & get the Astro MixAmpPro. The...- mathchris

Review by 'mathchris' on item 'Monster Turbine In-Ear Headphones'
After a six year love affair with a pair of Shure e4cs, they bit the dust & my wallet didn't allow for a similar investment. On my trip to J&R the day before an international flight, they were sold out of the Sure 215's I planned to try out. So I picked up the Turbines. First out of the box I...- mathchris

This box between my source & my amp.
It's a receiver! I'm a newbie & I have a few question on how this receiver relates to headphones. I want the receiver there because I have many sources. Is there any impressive headphone sound modes on receivers now a days? If so, will those modes translate thru the pre-outs? If I have...- mathchris

Advice on cash-limited amp for HD 595, pls
I was using a pair of Sens HD 595 today, they're fabulous. I don't have an answer for you but I'm currently looking into buying a Little Dot II for myself. I've read some good reviews on its value & it's in your price range. I'm looking for more opinions before I buy...- mathchris

Numark & Ion USB DACs
Numark, maker of fine DJ equipment, has a few mixers with USB inputs now. Has anyone listened to these DACs. I'm looking into buying the DM950USB ($100) but I can't find any reviews on this mixer. It has two USB inputs for use with two computers or one computer with software that supports...- mathchris

"Bit perfect" for Mac
Your question about keeping Mac application alerts off your audio system: use Detour for the Mac... it's fantastic freeware. It lets you rout any audio from any application to any audio output.
